Description
xThe complex blend of sweet and savoury distinctive flavours of the Red Fox, matured for between 16-18 months and naturally smoked over Oak chips.
Although smoking is a traditional method of preserving food, smoked cheese, which dates back to Roman times, also developed as a means of imparting extra flavour.
The russet coloured cheese has a cunningly unexpected crunch, from the naturally occurring calcium lactate crystals which form as the cheese matures.
